-
Name: Full designation of the tax type (e.g., "Standard Rate")

Tax Rate: VAT percentage (e.g., 20%)
-
Account Number: Optional number for accounting exports

Assigning Tax Types
Tax types are assigned when configuring products:
-

Tip: Use product groups to manage tax types efficiently. This way, you don't have to configure each product individually.
